.... could easily be produced to compete with the Rugers if the market demanded it and you could prove it would return a profit. A pretty much perfect example of this is the Sabbati sold by Cabelas. It was about half the price of any other SxS big bore. But sales were absolutely ruined by the manner they successfully regulated some of them. I never read a single honest report that said they did not regulate to hunting accuracy with a single one of them. It was an appearance they did something less expensive to regulate some of them.The forums can take credit for totally killing the sales.

Reminds me greatly of a man named Ralph Nader who totally destroyed the sales of an automobile by writing a book that did not honestly represent the automobile he hated so much. The book was 'Unsafe at any speed' (which it absolutely was not in any way) and the car was the Corvair by Chevrolet. I would personally been happy to own a Sabatti with the ground muzzle and used it in Africa. I really also liked the early Corvairs. Somehow millions have learned to drive rear engined air cooled horizontal opposed engined autos since before and after the Corvair. In point of fact I had one made of the 3 most popular. I had a Karmann Ghia Volkswagen,with Porsche running gear and brakes and a Corvair engine. Ran and drove exceptionally well. Also owned several Volkswagens and Porsches over the years
